The Commander in Chief, Far East (Ridgway) to the Joint Chiefs of Staff

secret   priority

C–57926. HNC 478. “Report of meeting of Staff Officers to determine line of contact, 24 November. Agreement was reached today on approximately 50% of the line of contact. In all cases where differences exist they are based upon enemy dispute of positions held by UN Forces. In part, the differences result from the enemy’s lack of accurate and timely information. In others it appears that he may be attempting to retain particularly desirable positions. UNC Staff Officers meet Communists again at 1000 tomorrow. In the event full agreement is not reached by noon tomorrow UNC sub-delegation will call for meeting of the two sub-delegations in an attempt to resolve the differences then existing. Sgd Joy”.
